Matt McMahon was at Tech for 3 weeks before Murray State took him back as head coach. He signed Morant as head coach at Murray State... apparently Konkol hit a short term homerun there. What could have been? Morant is going to be no. 2 pick on Thursday.
Yep -
And he might be the best NBA ready prospect in the entire draft - including Zion
Anybody heard thoughts on what the Pelicans are going to do with No. 4 pick? I am starting to get re-interested in NBA.Quote:

If they can’t move up, I would consider moving back from 4 to the 8-10 range and taking the Texas center. Very raw, but wow what an athlete.Quote:

I want to see NO pick DeAndre Hunter (Virginia) at 4 and put him next to Zion
This team needs scoring and veteran leadership. Trade out of the 4 spot and get a center and some shooters.
I am seriously considering by a 12 game ticket package for the season
BOOMBISQUIT! I am officially a fan.Quote:

Kyle wanted them to draft Bol Bol also...Quote:

I really like what they did last night with the picks and when you consider they have 31 million in cap space, they can go get whoever they want now. Well played.
They did a great job. I wanted Bol in addition to Hayes, but obviously a lot of teams were scared off, probably because of his weight. It is going to be interesting what they do with the cap space.Quote:

I also like the pick at 17. Seems to be a solid guard who can play 1, 2, and possibly even 3, and shot close to 40% from behind arc.
This will be a fun group to watch. Exciting time to be a Pelican fan. AD who??
Gonna be a fun year. I am excited for FA and will look into taking my kids this year.
